Turning organic residues into valuable agricultural resources offers a powerful opportunity for climate action. Black Soldier Fly bioconversion and biogas technologies cut methane emissions by avoiding landfilling and build more climate-resilient food systems, while producing sustainable animal feed, renewable energy and soil improvers. Discover how global partnerships, practitioner networks and do-tanks are advancing these complementary circular solutions, reducing dependence on conventional agricultural inputs, supporting local livelihoods and accelerating the transition towards low-emission, climate-smart agriculture. 
 
EVENT OBJECTIVES 
- Showcase biogas and BSF as key solutions for climate, food and energy goals 
- Highlight how policy frameworks can strengthen climate and other goals by setting the right incentives 
- Emphasize how global networks and partnerships can advance concept development and project implementation. 
- Promote industry-wide best practice and the importance of introducing minimum standards covering operations, health and safety, and environmental performance for biogas plants  
 
KEY OUTCOMES 
- Negotiators, city and agriculture representatives understand how BSF bioconversion and biogas can complement each other to cut methane from organic waste while supplying renewable energy, feed and fertiliser that reduce dependence on conventional agricultural inputs.  
- Policymakers, investors and practitioners discover how WBA’s flagship programme #MakingBiogasHappen is driving the rapid, sustainable growth of a professional biogas industry worldwide.  
- Participants learn how the CCAC/PREVENT BUGS-Africa project grew from a working group idea into a global movement, advancing BSF methodology and helping African countries build national BSF capacities and development pathways.  
- Policymakers, practitioners, researchers, investors and development partners connect and identify enabling policies, financing opportunities and collaboration pathways to scale locally appropriate BSF and biogas solutions, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
